Interesting egg facts

Can’t remember if an egg is fresh or hard boiled? Just

spin the egg. If it wobbles, it’s raw. If it spins easily, it’s
hard boiled. A fresh egg will sink in water, a stale one
will float.

Eggs contain all the essential protein, minerals and

vitamins, except Vitamin C. But egg yolks are one of few
foods that naturally contain Vitamin D. Eggs also
contain choline, which is necessary for healthy cell
membranes in the body. Choline stimulates brain
development and function and helps preserving
memory. Eggs also are good for your eyes because
they contain lutein which helps prevents age-related
cataracts and muscular degeneration. In fact, eggs
contain more lutein than spinach and other green
vegetables.

 Mona Lisa Mystery Solved
The expression of the “Mona Lisa” is ever inscrutable,
but researchers at the Louvre Museum in Paris
have figured out one of the secrets of her lovely skin.
Specifically, they are reporting how Leonardo da Vinci
painted shadows on her face without seeming to
use any actual brushstrokes—a technique
discussed so extensively that curators have given
the shadowing style a name, sfumato, which means
smoke in Italian. Although art experts have long
known that glaze on top of the paint contributed to
sfumato shading, this is the first time scientists
have measured the thickness and
chemical content of the sfumato glaze brushstrokes.

Monalisa's smile mystery solved???

The famous smile of Mona Lisa, the magnum
opus of Leonardo da Vinci, is no more a secret as
scientists have decoded the technique how the
Renaissance-era painter created a special effect
to show the enigmatic expression.

According to the experts, the artist managed to

achieve his trademark smoky effect, known as
sfumato, on the painting by applying up to 40
layers of extremely thin glaze thought to have
been smeared on with his fingers.
The glaze, mixed with subtly different pigments,
creates the slight blurring and shadows around
the mouth that give Mona Lisa her barely
noticeable smile that seems to disappear when
looked at directly.

With the help of X-rays, the researchers were

able to see how the layers of glaze and paint had
been built up to varying levels on the face, The
Telegraph reported.

Professor Francis Ames-Lewis, vice-president of

the Leonardo da Vinci Society, said: 'Leonardo
da Vinci was concerned with producing smooth
tonal gradients from light to dark without any
perceptible change like we see in real life and
sfumato was essential to this.

A Walk to Remember is a novel by

American writer Nicholas Sparks, released
in October 1999. The novel, set in the mid-
1950s in Beaufort, North Carolina, is a story
of two teenagers who fall in love with each
other despite the disparity of their
personalities.

May be God has a bigger plan for me than I

had for myself. Like this journey never ends.
Like you were sent to me because I am sick. To
help me through all this. You’re my angel….

-Jamie to Landon

The last person Landon thought he would fall for was Jamie Sullivan, daughter of the town's Baptist minister. A

quiet girl, Jamie seemed content living in a world apart from the other teens. She took care of her widowed father,

rescued hurt animals and volunteered at the local orphanage. Landon would never have dreamed of asking her out,

but a twist of fate threw them together when he found himself without a partner for the school dance. In the months

that followed, Landon discovered truths that most people take a lifetime to learn - about the joy of giving, the pain of

loss and, most of all, the transforming nature of love. Being with Jamie would show him the depths of the human

heart and lead him to a decision so stunning it would send him irrevocably on the road to manhood . . .

 Emerald Geeks

Emerald, the precious green colour clear stone, in symphony with geeks, the technical
enthusiasts, can create magic. In this project, the motive of this fine blend is to develop,
encourage, promote and implement technology that is environment friendly and can
boost national and international efforts to save our PLANET- THE EARTH.

Objectives:
 To promote greenery.
 To inspire, search and implement technology in a greener and eco friendly way.
 To spread awareness against the threats degrading the environment.
 To conduct highly interactive, literally motivated and knowledge oriented
events.
 To update subscribers with latest eco friendly, innovative ideas with efficient
practical utility.
 To encourage students to broach new ideas that could promote better use of
already existing energy resources and technology.
 To promote 3 R’s – REDUSE, RECYCLE and RESUSE.
 Save Energy by being a SMART IT.
 Motive:
The strength of architecture can be calibrated by the foundation it is build upon.
Similarly motive behind our society could be clearly understood by the documentary that
we shall be presenting to you in the ….. “IMPLEMENTATION THROUGH
MOTIVATION”
**The more you hear, the more you discover.
The more you visualize, the more you have the presentation capability**
Our society will not work on the figurative statements but with the solid ideas taken
together to culminate a pragmatic result. Instead of gathering admirations and
accolades, we will be focusing on the tasks to be done.
When all the above mentioned ideas are blended together with little experience,
“One would really feel the pleasure while watching it go and that too in an infallible
way.”

CONCRETE STEPS TO BE UNDERTAKEN:

“Arise, awake and stop not till the goal is achieved.”
Talent behind the walls is like food without taste, feed without nutrients and society
without aims. So here we are to bring them alive or awaken the dormant one’s under
deep slumber.
For instance:
We have 1000 volunteers; standing with us and supporting us hand in hand for the
environment, And out of these 1000, if 100 could come up with ideas, and even in these
100, if 10 could deliver it well and implement it and could gain efficient results, our
existence shall be justified.
“Besides Monotonous discussions, let’s make it interactive and endlessly
exploring!”
Lets be votive devotees for making Earth, the place for safe sustainability of future
generations.
Join the Cause, join us. GO GREEN INDIA. Twitter and Facebook are our partners
for the publicity and promotion activities of our society. Join us and serve the cause.
